Drop in the hard pulsed fraction and a candidate cyclotron line in IGR J16320-4751 seen by NuSTAR
Arash Bodaghee, Alan J. -L. Chiu, John A. Tomsick +10
We report on a timing and spectral analysis of a 50-ks NuSTAR observation of IGR J16320-4751 (= AX J1631.9-4752); a high-mass X-ray binary hosting a slowly-rotating neutron star. I…
Concept study of a small Compton polarimeter to fly on a CubeSat
Yi-Chi Chang, Chien-Ying Yang, Hung-Hsiang Liang +5
Application of cubesats in astronomical observations has been getting more and more mature in recent years. Here we report a concept study of a small Compton polarimeter to fly on…
Feasibility of Observing Gamma-ray Polarization from Cygnus X-1 Using a CubeSat
Chien-Ying Yang, Yi-Chi Chang, Hung-Hsiang Liang +7
Instruments flown on CubeSats are small. Meaningful applications of CubeSats in astronomical observations rely on the choice of a particular subject that is feasible for CubeSats.…
Evolution of X-Ray Properties of MAXI J1535-571: Analysis with the TCAF Solution
J. -R. Shang, D. Debnath, D. Chatterjee +5
We present spectral and timing properties of the newly discovered X-ray transient source, MAXI J1535-571, which is believed to be a Galactic X-ray binary containing a black hole ca…
Alternative explanations for extreme supersolar iron abundances inferred from the energy spectrum of Cygnus X-1
John A. Tomsick, Michael L. Parker, Javier A. Garcia +11
Here we study a 1-200 keV energy spectrum of the black hole binary Cygnus X-1 taken with NuSTAR and Suzaku. This is the first report of a NuSTAR observation of Cyg X-1 in the inter…
Maximum Likelihood Compton Polarimetry with the Compton Spectrometer and Imager
Alexander W. Lowell, Steven E. Boggs, Jeng-Lun Chiu +11
Astrophysical polarization measurements in the soft gamma-ray band are becoming more feasible as detectors with high position and energy resolution are deployed. Previous work has…
